Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.

The verse 14 is found in chapter 28 of Isaiah. Jerusalem’s leaders believe they have made a covenant with death, but Isaiah presents the stone laid in Zion as a secure foundation. The architect metaphor contrasts with the false security of human agreements. The “strange work” of divine action demonstrates that God is not limited by the strategic expectations of its rulers.

So höret nun des HERRN Wort, ihr Spötter, die ihr herrschet über dies Volk, das zu Jerusalem ist.
Por tanto, varones burladores, que estáis enseñoreados sobre este pueblo que está en Jerusalem, oíd la palabra de Jehová.
Por eso escuchen la palabra de Jehová, hombres burlones que gobiernan a este pueblo que está en Jerusalén.
Ecoutez donc la parole de l'Eternel, moqueurs, Vous qui dominez sur ce peuple de Jérusalem!
Perciò, ascoltate la parola del Signore, uomini schernitori, che signoreggiate questo popolo, che è in Gerusalemme.
Ouvi, pois, a palavra do SENHOR, homens escarnecedores, que dominais este povo que está em Jerusalém.
因此,你們這些傲慢的人, 就是管轄住 耶路撒冷 這百姓的, 要聽耶和華的話。
